Chapter 1279: The Entire Army Attacks

Liu Zheng could not be bothered to pay attention to these people.

When the people in the parliament asked for Liu Zheng's opinion, he just smiled and said nothing.

Let them argue.

It is only when the parliament argues that things feel a bit more lively.

After leaving the parliament, he arrived at his Horse Carriage.

Liu Zheng sat in the steady Horse Carriage, closing his eyes to rest his mind.

Yu Qian sat opposite him, not knowing what to say. Yu Qian was now the proper Minister of the Ministry of War, and the military affairs of Longyan, down to the smallest detail, were all on his mind.

"My Lord... you are clearly in favor of war, so why..."

Previously, Yu Qian had been very resistant to Liu Zheng, but having spent a long time by Liu Zheng's side recently, he slowly began to feel that Liu Zheng was not the person he had previously thought—someone greedy for power and wealth.

His constitutional monarchy was also not for the sake of satisfying his own selfish desires...

He was doing it for the entire country, for the future of this country. Therefore, Yu Qian's view of Liu Zheng had changed significantly. In the days he had been following Liu Zheng recently, he had not seen Liu Zheng rest even once. This was the biggest reason for Yu Qian's change of heart. Greedy for pleasure? Not at all; he spent every day reviewing files and every day correcting documents.

Greedy for power and status?

Not that either.

He treated people with humility, was polite and approachable, and almost never threw his weight around.

So, Yu Qian was a bit confused.

He suddenly remembered Liu Zheng's reputation from before: the Contemporary Sage.

Could it be...

Was he truly the Contemporary Sage? An Eternal Saint?

Once this thought emerged, Yu Qian gave a bitter smile. Because it was truly too abnormal.

What he did not know was this.

Liu Zheng was indeed not some saint; he was also a person with selfish desires. But his selfish desires lay in what he could achieve in this lifetime, and whether he could leave his name in history. What he cared about was his sense of achievement, not those cheap pleasures. Sometimes Liu Zheng actually wondered if those cheap pleasures were really that cheap, given how many people were addicted to them. However, everyone's pursuits were different, and since Liu Zheng was already in this position, it would be a bit unjustifiable for him to covet those low-level pleasures.

He wanted to change an era; he wanted to change a world.

Therefore, regarding Yu Qian's question, he just chuckled: "Let them argue. First, in the process of arguing, let everyone slowly get used to this atmosphere of parliament. Second, after arguing for a few more days, it will be about time..."

"About time?"

Yu Qian was stunned.

Liu Zheng smiled and nodded, then said no more.

He took out three documents separately.

One was sent to the Northwest war front; the matter of troop reinforcements had been ongoing, and this time, he wanted to urge them. Because it was not just about reinforcing troops; to deal with the current Tsarist Russia Army, he was considering something further, which was to take back Lake Balkhash. Not only did he want to take it back, but if possible, he also wanted to penetrate deep into Tsarist Russia's territory and grab as much as he could.

Another one was sent to Xiao Qian at the Far East war front.

He had given Xiao Qian the order to wrap up the remaining situation within a month. The military provisions were not just for the Northwest war front; he wanted Xiao Qian to be prepared.

The other one was for Huobu Quli.

The army in the south could not stay out of this either; this time, regarding the war with Tsarist Russia, Liu Zheng wanted a massive reversal.

A heaven-shaking reversal.

Time passed, day by day.

The Northwest war front and the Kuye Island war front simultaneously reached a white-hot state.

Ten days.

On the tenth day after the new military provisions arrived, the Tsarist Russia side experienced trouble for the first time.

First, Rumyantsev's deputy commander suddenly collapsed, foaming at the mouth while directing the war. People did not become alert, thinking it was due to excessive mental stress, but after replacing him with another deputy commander, this one also foamed at the mouth and died on the spot. Rumyantsev knew that something was unusual.

Next, it was not just these deputy commanders; Thousand-Man Commanders, Centurions, squad leaders, and many soldiers simultaneously exhibited the same symptoms.

"What is going on? What is going on!"

Rumyantsev was shocked.

Could it be that this Longyan was up to some trick?

He knew that on the Far East war front, their Tsarist Russia generals had intentionally spread the Plague toward the Liaodong direction; he had always scoffed at this.

Could it be...

"Doctor, doctor!"

Soon, the doctor diagnosed it as poisoning.

Clearly, this poisoning incident was not that simple.

"Retreat, retreat!"

Rumyantsev took a deep breath and shouted loudly.

However, it was already too late.

For the soldiers on the Longyan side, they actually treated every day of fighting as the final decisive battle! The ideological work Zou Sheng did for them was exactly like that! Every battle required them to ignite all their morale; every battle required them to go all out with one hundred percent effort and bring their best state.

Therefore, when such a large group of the Tsarist Russia Army suddenly collapsed on the battlefield, the Longyan army, who were in the heat of the slaughter, although not knowing what was going on, would never miss such an opportunity.

"Kill!"

"They can't hold on anymore!"

"Brothers, charge!"

They all believed that these Tsarist Russia troops must be unable to adapt to the local environment and could not hold on! This thought was not wrong; after all, it had been over a year, and the phenomenon of not adapting to the local environment was indeed quite serious. This was Longyan's home turf. Suddenly, the people on the Longyan side all became excited. Look! The Tsarist Russia barbarians were nothing more than this!

Their physique was good?

Not necessarily!

Seeing this situation and having received the order to retreat, the Tsarist Russia Army naturally retreated frantically.

Today's battle had not started long ago, and the sky had not yet reached noon, so they retreated frantically, and the Longyan Army chased frantically; they were full of energy! Swords and blades began to hack fiercely at the backs of the Tsarist Russia people, and Long Spears pierced fiercely into the hearts of the Tsarist Russia people. The entire battlefield was like this; these Tsarist Russia troops, who were full of life yesterday, today seemed to have completely turned into paper. As soon as they made contact, they collapsed, and as soon as they were struck, they died...

Could there be anything easier than this?

Is a deity helping them?

Has a deity manifested their spirit?

None of this matters; just kill!

Zou Sheng also could not help but have his eyes flash suddenly.

What is going on with Tsarist Russia?

Because the matter was top secret, too few people knew about the poisoned military rations, not even Zou Sheng.

But regardless of the reason, since the opportunity has come, it must be seized! A famous general should have the ability to seize a great opportunity in an instant!

"All troops, attack!"

Zou Sheng seized it.

Moreover, this seizure directly allowed him to defeat the former War God of Tsarist Russia, Rumyantsev, and become a famous general of his generation.

That's right, the former one.

Because starting today, he is no longer one.
